Art for Art's Sake

I don't often find myself in the position of having no idea what I will do next. I however seem to have stumbled into it lately. I like my life and the excitement that is around every turn in the past few weeks. I like not knowing who will call or who I will spend time with next. I figure my time for this kind of folly is limited so if someone calls with an unusual invitation you only live once, right?

So along with this non-stop fun is a quandary. Someone who stepped into my path and doesn't fit my pattern. Doesn't fit a pattern I recognize and is unlike anyone I have met in years. While she gives me less time than it takes to gulp a glass of wine to recover she seems to pop up in my path as the sane and logical as opposed to the train wrecks and bait and switch types that have appeared on my horizon as of late.

This one challenges my ideas of gender roles, attraction and even what draws me to certain women at all. I feel as though I have been plucked up out of my comfort zone and dropped into another place altogether. This is a place of Picasso or Dali when I was browsing through Da Vinci.

It is not an unpleasant space. It is actually quite beautiful. But who knows if I can get over myself enough to accept it or if I will chase off the opportunity and follow some winding and impossible path of convention played out in unconventional terms. The one thing it is forcing me to learn is- it's all art; and it all makes life worth living.

Thank you.
